| Description of the problem | Brakes on the nissan leaf were pulsing on and the would turn off and a few seconds later would turn back on. Cycle would repeat every 3 seconds till the car came to complete stop. Local dealer investigated and informed me the disc brake rotors were warped. Can't believe the brakes would shut down if rotors were warped. Could have lead to serious accident. |
